Fish Basket Dubai delivered an unforgettable dining experience, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best seafood spots in the city. From the cozy ambiance to the attentive service, everything was on point. But let’s talk about the real stars of the meal—the food and those delightful desserts!
For dinner, I indulged in their Hamour Fish, Jumbo Shrimp, and Mussels, and each dish was exceptional. The Hamour Fish was perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor, while the Jumbo Shrimp were juicy and grilled to perfection. The Mussels, served in a creamy sauce, were so good that I wanted to lick the bowl clean (but I restrained myself 😅). Every bite felt fresh, flavorful, and truly satisfying.
Now, onto the highlight of the evening—the desserts! Fish Basket surprised me with a trio of traditional sweets that ended the meal on such a high note:
- Basbousah: This Middle Eastern classic was moist, buttery, and topped with a drizzle of syrup and crunchy pistachios. It was the perfect balance of sweetness and texture.
- Pudding: Creamy, smooth, and not overly sweet, this pudding was comforting and nostalgic—a great way to wrap up the meal.
- Fresh Watermelon & Oranges: A refreshing palate cleanser! The juicy slices of watermelon and oranges added a light, citrusy touch that complemented the richer desserts beautifully.
The combination of these desserts showcased the perfect mix of tradition and simplicity—each bite was a celebration of flavors. Plus, the freshness of the fruit was a lovely reminder of how sometimes the simplest things can be the most satisfying.
The service throughout the evening was impeccable. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure we had everything we needed. They even shared fun facts about the dishes, which added to the overall experience.
While Fish Basket Dubai is moderately priced, the quality of the food, generous portions, and attention to detail make it excellent value for money. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just craving some delicious seafood, this place is a must-visit.
